Question / Help Monitor capture does not show league of legends game, what to do?

[Avadon7]

Hello so I am new to streaming and I try to get it work but It refuses to work : /

I also would like to have myself on the corner of the stream but I have no idea how to do that.

Additional info: All else works in streaming but when I get into league of legends game It is just black backround showing only my mouse pointer.

I don't play LoL but doesn't it work with Game Capture?

Yes, you should use game capture to capture games. Monitor capture is slow and will lag / not work and should rarely ever be used.

I somewhat blame SivHD's 'custom LoL interface' how-to. I've seen a TON of people following his method of using a global source monitor capture and adding it to a scene multiple times and cropping it down to rearrange game elements, when it's just outright bad performance-wise.

But yeah. Stop using Monitor Capture. Use a Game Capture for the in-game (if you use fullscreen) and a Window Capture for the pvp.net client (menu, pick/ban, etc). If you use fullscreen borderless mode, use a separate window capture for the game client too.

I'm having a similar issue, and League is not showing up in either game capture (and prefer not to run game windowed).
Ive only been having this issue recently (obs v0.624b 64bit)

Remember that the LoL client and the LoL game itself are different applications, and you will have to add different captures for each one.
